CQB with Surefire M910

[UncleWalther]

Just ran up to Calgary today to buy a Surefire M910 for my CQB. The thing now weighs a ton, but at least I'll be ready for action if the lights go out

 

[Shootist]

Nice

I thought you were selling this rig

May I ask... How much did that light cost you and where did u get it?

What optic is that too?

 

[hermann78]

Things didn't work out with the sale, and I decided to keep it (for now). Got the light from TSE for $540-something. The scope is an Elcan Specter DR.

I can't understand why everyone is down on the Elcan. I love this scope, and it seems that the same goes for others who own it. Was there some Elcan quality issues in the past that have scarred the name? In any case, I like it..... amazing glass, great reticle, and the ability to switch from 1x to 4x with the flick of a lever.

Very nice rig. Big bucks for that setup. The Specter has a BDC reticle, correct? If so, what barrel length is it made for? It's not likely to work with the abbreviated barrel on a CQB right?

The Spectre Dr is not your Daddy's Elcan. It is a fantastic optic.

 

[Sigismund]

Looks great And yes, Elcan Spectre DR's are worth every penny.

 

[koalorka]

I can has?

I'm envious.

what about it not holding zero when switching back and forth?

 

[Yenner]

I love the... density(?) of that rig. Short and bulky and angry looking.

Hmmmm.... that is a good question. Yes, in addition to a red dot, it has an illuminated BDC reticle (just depends which way you turn the dial as to which reticle you get, and how bright). Not sure about the barrel length issue..... I'll have to read the manual.

That is definitely the "Deluxe Package" - looks like a Pitbull on steroids.

what is the make on that VFG?

 

[Sigismund]

The elcan dr is made for a 16 inch ar barrel, but I have had great success with it on my 20 inch swiss arms 1/10. And, no, I have not lost zero yet, due to the switching back and forth between 1x-4x

I think you have to put rounds down range between intervals of switching back and forth before you see issues of loosing zero.....

Well, thats what I ment.
